Looks like below RM5.00 is inevitable, just a Question of when that happens.

Harta goes ex dividend on Feb 22, so I guess most probably test 52 week low next week.

If I didnt already own Harta, I would certainly look towards picking up at below RM5.00 as at those levels there is conservatively a possible 20%-30% upside ( ie RM6.00 to RM6.50) in say 1 to 2 years when things get clearer and all the noise settles.

In the meantime, you get to enjoy the dividends which waiting, which although dividends will drop from current payout, it will still be better than FD rates.

Unfortunately, there is also a 20% to 30% downside risks in the shorter term ie within this year.

JP Morgan's TP of RM4.00 ie 20% drop from current price, comes to mind.

30% will bring it to RM3.50, which probably be the worst case scenario.

As for me the last chance to exit was probably at RM6.00.

Now at RM5.00, we are probable at the middle of my best case and worst case scenarios.

I guess I'll just ride it out now and collect whatever dividend I get, as I think this counter is worth more than the current price which I think doesn't reflect that. Of course, I may be wrong but that's my bet.

We're looking at pre-COVID prices right now. This price doesn't reflect Hartalega's increase in capacity in the next 3 to 4 years and it is expected that ASPs will be higher than pre-COVID levels as countries start to give more attention towards health and safety.

Hartalega's clients are those who care about quality and China is Top Glove's main competitor. Hartalega should be able to cement its position as a leading manufacturer with its patents and many innovations.

This stock isn't for gambling, it is for value investing. You're looking at a forward PE of about 20x at this current price and this is based on its pre-COVID production capacity. If you start factoring the rest in, PE should be about 15x, which is lower than what Hartalega is normally traded for pre-COVID.

Harta share price after ex-dividend next Tuesday will be less than RM5 around 4.80+

Posted by bang_miskin > 2022-02-17 22:54 | Report Abuse

Kossan QR just came out, and they are very similar to Harta's current QR. With that info, I don't think prices are going up anytime soon. In fact, very likely it may trend downwards below RM5.

As a long-term holder, all I can hope is a better-than-expected next quarter report. Currently watching the trend and see if I can accumulate some below RM4.80. Aside from that, not much to be said.

Harta share price after ex-dividend is RM 57.8 which is higher than the price you bought during 2008 (RM2) ....... this kind of dividend where to find? The dividend is 14.8sen X 12 (after bonus issue ) which is RM 1.77 for every 1,000 units you bought for Harta during year 2008

FRANKFURT: The world is becoming "better prepared" to deal with future variants of the coronavirus, the CEO and co-founder of German vaccine-maker BioNTech told AFP Thursday, as the company works on an Omicron-specific shot.

"We will have to get used to the fact that we will have to live with the virus for the next 10 years," said Ugur Sahin, whose company developed the first mRNA vaccine against the virus with US pharma giant Pfizer.

New virus variants were inevitable "because the virus will mutate further", he said, potentially leading to new flare-ups in cases.

Posted by Sslee > 2022-02-19 09:53 | Report Abuse

From Harta:
Q3 FY2022 vs Q2 FY2022
Revenue for the quarter has decreased by RM 1.01 billion or 50.0% as compared to the preceding
quarter (Q2FY22). The current quarter ASP has declined by 44% as compared to Q2FY22 mainly
due to increased supply from major and new glovemakers. Sales volume has also dropped 17%
from Q2FY22 which was attributed to customers continuing to adjust inventories due to declining
ASP coupled with logistic challenges such as capacity constraints on vessels.
Profit before tax for the quarter decreased by RM 835.0 million or 70.3% to RM352.4 million as
compared to Q2FY22. This was mainly due to the lower revenue, partly offset by the decrease in
raw material price.

Harta capital commitment:
Approved and contracted for RM 1,147,835,000 as at 31th Dec 2021.

Know this is for what plant expansion?

Posted by observatory > 2022-02-19 12:13 | Report Abuse

Cash Flow Statement shows minimal change in PPE, but about RM700 million built up in capital work in progress. The capital WIP is most likely for NGC1.5.

Adding capital WIP RM700m to the "approved and contracted for" of RM1.1 billion, the total is about RM1.8billion. The sum matches previous announcement RM1.7 billion capex for NGC 1.5.

Thanks observatory.
Just bought some Kossan and will top up if drop further. A 12 cents dividend for this quarter is good enough for me as Kossan is still holding RM 2.56 billion cash and bank balances.

Harta
Market Cap: 17,172 Million
NOSH: 3,428 Million
Capacity:
To-date, 8 out of the 9 lines under Plant 7 of NGC have commenced operations (unchanged from the previous quarter) with the remaining line targeted for commissioning in coming months. Moving forward, Hartalega will begin commence operations of Plant 8, which is under NGC 1.5 in October 2022 (postponed from the initial plan in April 2022 due to the moderating demand). The aforementioned expansion with additional 4 plants is expected to boost annual production capacity to by additional 19.0bn pieces to 63.0bn pieces.

Kossan
Market Cap: 4,440 Million
NOSH: 2,552 Million
Capacity:
In the meantime, the planned capacity expansion over the next two years are as follows:- (i) a piece of land in Meru located adjacent to one of its current plants is earmarked for a single plant with 5b pieces capacity to be completed in two phases i.e. Phase 1 – 6 lines, 2b pieces commencing in 2H 2021 and Phase 2 – 10 lines, 3b pieces commencing in 1H 2022, and (ii) 12 lines with 4b pieces capacity to fully commission in 2HCY22 in Bidor. Upon completion, these three new plants will bring the group’s total installed capacity from 32b to 42.4b (+33%) pieces of gloves per annum.

So why Harta Market Cap 17.2 billion and Kossan 4.4 biilion?

Posted by observatory > 2022-02-19 16:19 | Report Abuse

@Sslee, as you're probably well aware, historically Harta has been priced at a premium over other glove producers.

Pre-Covid Harta's operating margin was about 20%, versus Kossan at 12% to 13%.

Given their management, company culture, financial health and so on remain the same, it's reasonable to expect Harta to continue trade at a premium over Kossan.

Whether Harta's premium should be as high as RM17.2b for 43b piece nitrile capacity, versus Kossan's RM4.4b for 32b mixed capacity, is subjective. But a premium is deserved.

Posted by Sslee > 2022-02-19 17:51 | Report Abuse

TQ observatory.
Year before covid
Year 2019 Kossan NP 10%
Year 2019 Harta NP about 15%

Post covid if capacity utilisation is not optimised what should Harta premium be? And can harta maintain a 5% addition NP against Kossan?

If Chinese glove companies consistently make losses because of their higher production cost, it may either force them to innovate and cut cost, or be more hesitant to expand further. Of course top 4 margin will kena squeeze by higher competition, so will be interested in next QR to look at its impact on profit margin. Want to play safe, can invest later. Want to gamble, can buy now.

Topglove QR is next month yes? Something to keep an eye on.
